mozilla-central cutoff for next release: April 12th

[sayrer]

April 12th will be 3 weeks after the release of Firefox 4. According to the draft at

http://people.mozilla.com/~sayrer/2011/temp/process.html

that means the next Firefox release will begin to stabilize on April 12th, and the "experimental" update channel will be activated. Since there has been general agreement on the document, we are moving forward with that plan.

The sheriffs have been doing a great job on mozilla-central, so I think things are looking good. We don't have an extensive policy in place, but experience and judgement seem to be serving us well.

If you have questions or concerns, please contact me on- or off-list.

And the Mozilla employee all-hands work week eats up 1/3 of that time.

Which might be good as to not cause an overload of large landings in
this first cycle in the new format.

A little off-topic, but is there a .ics calendar feed for these cutoff
dates?
